about us
FAMILY-OWNED FOR FOUR GENERATIONS
We celebrated our 50th anniversary in 2016, and we look forward to the next 50 years of serving our wonderful customers and community.
Let our professional service staff & factory-trained certified technicians take care of you and your boat.
Experts in boating since 1966
We offer the most popular and iconic brands in boating along with a top shelf, no hassle boating experience before and after the sale. After four generations of operating a boat business, you learn a thing or two about offering value and taking care of your customers. Our Bay view marina facility is paid for, and we have very little debt service which means we can offer better boats than our competitors at great prices! This also means you can be sure that Clemons Boats will be around to take care of you for years to come.
We are your northern Ohio boat dealer for top quality brands like Boston Whaler, Albemarle, Sea Pro, Bass Cat, Yar-Craft, Ikon, and Bennington lake-worthy pontoons. We also sell and service Mercury, Yamaha, Mercruiser, and Volvo engines giving you the choice you want.
We also specialize in boat rentals, dockage, winter storage, parts, accessories, and top notch service for all of the brands we handle. Located in Sandusky, Ohio, we service the Cleveland, Toledo, Findlay, Columbus, and Akron and Canton markets, with a special focus on Lake Erie boaters.
We look forward to the opportunity to welcome you to the Clemons Boats family!

our awards
What is the Boating Industry Top 20?
The Top 20 is an annual ranking of dealerships that are unsurpassed in overall business operations, customer service, professionalism and all the characteristics that go along with them.
Dealerships must submit details and data that supports the information provided for each criteria section of the review process. The rankings are determined through both quantitative and qualitative data provided.
What does it take to be a Boating Industry Top 20 Dealer?
Managing a dealership to high levels of customer service, high volume sales and profits is no easy task. Simultaneously creating an atmosphere that exceeds high consumer expectations can be even more difficult. For the most professional of dealerships, however, these tasks have not only become second nature, but they are firmly integrated in the business’ day-to-day operations. They understand that delivering on the promise of the boating lifestyle – not just a boat – is the No. 1 key to success.
A dealership must:
- Display a consistent and clear understanding that the profitability of the organization is directly related to the extent that it focuses on customer satisfaction;
- Provide customers with an experience worth returning for and recommending to others;
- Prepare for future success with sound planning, marketing, and training initiatives;
Ensures an exceptional boating lifestyle.
Clemons Boats has earned the Boating Industry’s Top 100 List since 2016 and the Top 20 List since 2021
